What is next?

Well, I have been all over the board and then back again.

Key to my success is to improve as well as maintain my signing skills. One can't interpret what one can't understand/see and the same is for putting it into sign. This is so key for me. I know that Karla and Katie are staying on for their BoR and that Elisha is looking to find a four-year Interpreting program to get her bachelor's degree so she can complete the requirements for the NIC. Sometimes I am a little slow and I am still undecided where I want to put my energies as far as schooling. It is understood that I wouldn't be able to pass the NIC by next June, I just don't have the skills and am unsure where my experience will come from in one year. April, if I am wrong please let me know!! (But I really don't think I am.) I am only moderately concerned about the written exam, although I have plenty of books to read and they are on my shelf waiting for me, for the end of this program!

So, I can pass the written NIC and I need schooling of some sort and I really need sign and interpreting experience. The big thing for me is: where and how.

Even though I've never been a 'planner', I enjoy the wisdom of Karla's Five P's: Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance. So now I am reaching out and looking around. What's next? I love the language and will be an awesome interpreter, with more tools under my belt. Can, that!
